Innovation in Educational Technology Unconference

Friday November 19, 2010 9:00am - 3:00pm

Folsom Lake College, FL1-130 (Innovation Center)


Join fellow educators as we explore the innovative use of technology in education. This is an informal, unconference-style, lunch-on-your-own, collaborative, grassroots, on-the-fly, bring-your-own-mobile-device (laptop/netbook/iPod/iPad/Galaxy Tab/smartphone/chumby) event - basically a supportive atmosphere in which to nerd out and talk about teaching and technology. All Los Rios faculty are invited to attend - beginners and experts, adjunct and full-time. Below is a tentative schedule - we'll finalize it on the morning of the workshop. For more information, email dowellz@, text 916.467.9552 or give me a call at x6605.
